I'm hoping I can still get a ticket to Soundwave, however unlikely it is because I have have have to see you guys! Haha. I'm hoping when you say that more dates are going to be added you mean more dates in Australia at smaller venues, that would be the best. It doesn't matter where in the country the extra shows are as long as you're playing I'll be thereee.

What a great bill! The two problems will be: determining the order, and that so many of us fans will be in Winnipeg!

Seattle's Nat Damm has done a poster for the tour that we think is pretty awesome, and we're sure you will think so too. We'll have them at the merch area during the upcoming tour, so stop by, say hi, and admire Nat's handiwork!

Love the poster! Saw the Detroit show last night -- exceptional! Elliott Brood was a nice discovery for me, too.

Hey! I've got night class tomorrow night but really really want to make it to the Roxy show. I live about an hour east from there and have a real good chance of getting out early (6:30 or so).

I was wondering if anyone had any idea on around when their set would start, and what the likelihood of the show selling out is. I'm new to the area and have no clue how shows work out west.
